yeah thats what i think too! i love his ears!!! |
My uncle Terry has a yorkie, 100% purebred but he's 12 pounds and has gigantic ears.They stand up and everything and look great but he's a big boy. Sweet as can be though and definitely all yorkie. |
Dont listen to everyone else..if you truely believe he's a yorkie..dont worry what others think/say he's adorable! |
aww thanks hun! Yeah alfie is pretty big too, i always have to get him large toy dogs clothes! he has put on weight since coming to live with us but i think is looks better, really cuddly! |
Alfie is YOUR Yorkie no matter what our opinions might be. I think the fact that you took on a 5 year old dog of any breed is admirable and I thank you for it. I would groom the coat and ears differently. I would trim that extra 1/2 inch of hair that is sticking off around the edges of the ears and makes them look larger. But, the big thing has already been mentioned--the cut on the face. Let the facial hair grow and it will make a world of difference in the look. I am only saying this IF you want to try something different. Remember, any cut will grow cause it is only hair and that makes it a temp. look.. Give Alfie smoochies from Rini's cuties |
Alfie is adorable..hehe..Coco has a crush on him. Coco had really big ears as a pup. I brought her to work one day and everyone was like she's awfully cute, but man, she is ALLL ears. I thought she looked cute with them anyway..hehe..just more to nibble on at night. But she grew into her ears and now they look tiny but I would have loved munching and kissing on those big ears. You can do that with Alfie, no doubt he will love it..hehe...he's a cutie pie. |
I think you may have to let Coco down gently on Alfies behalf, he seems to only go for very big dogs! heheheh! He loves massive dogs like alsations, my nan has a yorkie and Alfie is soooo not interested! lol |
Haha aww, I will let her 4lbs self down gently. Hey some like the big gals and thats ok...Coco is like the tall supermodel kind of yorkie. She's tall, leggie, with a flat belly and tiny features..loool... :p |
4 Attachment(s) I have the same concern, my puppy is gonna be 12 weeks old and when i go to the pet store and look at other yorkies they have so much hair and it's so long.. yet Rylie doesn't i can't even really put a bow in her hair because it's still to short... her hair isisn't growing very fast. She was really silky soft fur an the hair on the top of her head so goin lighter ( almost as if it would be white but thats just at the roots) Does my baby Rylie look like a full Yorkie? i was told she was. I have added 4 different pictures... both her ears aren't standing up yet ( which i prefer them to be floppy).. but she has one ear now that is standing up the other still flops down. What do you guys think? |

Well obviously i cant answer you cos i didnt even have a clue about my own! LOL. But i can say that she is soooo lovely!!!! oh and with regards to COCO...yeah i think Alfie is def more of a fan of the larger laydee, maybe he thinks coco would be far too high maintenance! Bit like me really! lol |

thank you. he is sitting on my lap and im sure he can read all these compliments cos he seems real happy! lol |
id say he was a full yorkie he has just got large ears and as for his colour he is lighter than he should be but one of the yorkies i had was also light grey and he had 5 cruff champs in his pedigree.maybe somewhere in its pedigree one of the yorkies had over large ears,even if a yorkie is a full pedigree it doesnt always mean that they are all show quality. hes lovely the way he is :) |
Thanks for that. I dont want him to be show quality!! I love him the way he is. |
3 Attachment(s) My Little Lydia is 3/4 Yorkie, 1/4 Maltese. Her coat has similar coloring to your puppies face~ Her brother was darker, looked more Yorkie. Kara |
He's a yorkie!! Just because he doesn't have the right size ears doesn't mean he isn't 100% yorkie. Most dogs have a flaw! So yours has been ears, big deal! I think he is cute! My girls are tall, and that is a fault too! but they are still 100% yorkie. :p |
my sweet pea has different coloring and has big ears but she is all yorkie.. http://i1.tinypic.com/sfyp37.jpg but my other yorkie sebi has little tiny ears http://i1.tinypic.com/sfyq9d.jpg your pup is cute...enjoy i think its all YORKIE... |
Looks like a yorkie to me! |

aww al the pics are sooooo cute, thanks for sharing! |
Ollie - OMG...Ollie is so CUTE!!! I want a house full of Yorkies Ü |
HERE'S MY "YORKIE" 1 Attachment(s) I bought tucker at 8 weeks as a yorkie/silky x ,at that age they all kinda look the same.As he got older his coat turned to a thicker wolly coat and his color stayed the same so who knows what he is,he might be what I was told he was,he might not.Tucker is a total sweetheart and I love him but I had an unsure feeling about the breeder so who knows.I do think it's totally irresponsible for breeders to knowingly deceive buyers who think they're getting a certain breed .I ended up getting a female who is definitely yorkie and they're best buds so in the end it doesn't really matter to me.Here's a pic what do you guys think? |
1 Attachment(s) I had asked myself the same question, but now I do believe my Tinkerbell is a full Yorkie, the reason I had doubted is because I got her here in South Korea and well I got her from my vet, most breeds of dogs here are full but they dont really give you papers saying that they are 100%. To me she does seem like a Yorkie and she acts like a Yorkie, she only weighs under 2lbs at 16 weeks, she does have big ears to me but they do stand up. Her ears actually just went up about 2 weeks ago, before they would go up and down or one up and one down :D . |
For Tucker - check out this website that compares Silkies, Yorkies and Austrailan Terriers - very interesting, I didn't know Silkies looked so much like Yorkies. Also they state that a Yorkie must be only 6 pounds?????? http://www.telusplanet.net/public/si...ifferences.htm |

It also says a yorkie has a domed head, where the standard calls for a flatter head. Whoever made that website should have checked their facts a little closer. |
Looks like a yorkie to me. Her hair is short and her ears are not trimed close to the ear. My Gus has big ears but after learning how to clip his ears, they don't look so big anymore. Yorkies come in all different colors so I wouldn't worry unless you were interested in showing or breeding. |
